We’re so glad you’re here! We’re Christine, Kevin, and 3 travel-loving kiddos. We’ve made this website to be your comprehensive guide to family travel as you plan and go on adventures with your kids by airplane, car, RV, or cruise ship!

Our family of 5 absolutely loves traveling together and believes kids bring so much fun and joy to exploring together. Whatever age your kids are there is a way for you to get out on adventures together!

We aim to make your planning and traveling easier and less stressful with our family travel tips and how to’s, destination guides and itineraries, inspiration, checklists, and transparently sharing costs and lessons learned.

Never Stop Adventuring About Us Family Picture

Why Trust Us To Guide Your Family?

We have been traveling with our kids for the last 10 years. As parents of three, we’re experienced in travel with babies, toddlers, big kids, and now a tween!

Our traveling kids have been to 42 U.S. states, 6 countries, and 17 national parks. They’ve traveled on 34 flights (their first each at 9 months old), and have spent 385 nights abroad and 29 nights on cruise ships. We’ve been living in an RV full-time for 7 years traveling all over the country.

So how have we been able to do it? By approaching family travel with a can-do mentality, knowing we’ll get through challenges and learn from any mistakes. By not letting fears hold us back, and learning that it’s more fun, and wild, and rewarding than we ever had imagined. By researching and experiencing what works for traveling with kids first-hand, and finding ways to make it all less overwhelming and more affordable. We’ve been there, and are passing all our how to’s on to you!

We have experienced travel at countless ages and stages of parenthood, travel modes, and destinations that inform the advice we share so you are empowered with the knowledge and tools you need to know how you can do it too, and can focus on the fun and making memories!

About Our Family

I (Christine) am the main author of our website and on our socials. I love planning all the details of our family friendly trips and sharing travel tips and destinations in practical and actionable ways so you can do it too!

Growing up in an Army family, travel is in my blood, and with my family by my side there’s nothing else I’d rather be doing. This passion motivates me to inspire and be as helpful with your family travel planning as I can! You never know what will happen tomorrow, so I strongly believe the best time to travel is now.

Kevin handles the technical side of things for our family and travels, including RV projects, points and miles strategy, and videography and editing to bring our travels to life for you on YouTube and elsewhere. His passions are hiking, biking, and climbing!

Klara, Nathan, and Samantha are learning and growing in countless ways by seeing the world and all the lessons that exposure to various people, nature, and culture can teach them. They look at the world around them as we travel with curiosity and wonder.

They are homeschooled and love playing with friends, finding local playgrounds, being involved in clubs and crafts as we find them, and Junior Ranger programs.

Our kiddos all love our current lifestyle, and until it stops working for any one of us, you’ll be able to find us road-tripping in our RV and traveling all over the world!

Our Story

We met and married in Northern Virginia, going on a 3 country honeymoon in Europe to Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. We eventually decided we wanted to move to Colorado and the mountains.

We took 6 months off in 2013 to do a road trip around the US in a 23ft travel trailer, visiting 28 states, hiking hundreds of miles, and driving 16,000 miles before settling in Denver.

We had our first two kids in Denver and thought we’d be there for a long time, but got the travel bug and moved into our fifth wheel RV with our 2.5 year old and 8 month old in early 2018 as well as with our lab mix dog Maggie who traveled with us for many years as well.

Since then we’ve been traveling all over the US, going to Germany to visit some of Christine’s family and adding other countries and even cruising over the years.

Our third child was born as we continued our travels, with brief stops for appointments and her birth.

From one travel loving family who didn’t stop adventuring during life’s changes and adding kids to another, we are excited to help you never stop adventuring also!

Here Are Some Fun Facts About Us

  1. We met while caving! We met at vertical training practice for our local caving club on the cliffs of Great Falls, MD above the Potomac River and then went to WV for a weekend of caving. How can you resist someone covered from head to toe in mud and crawling through tight cave passageways?! The rest is history!
  2. Christine grew up as an Army brat. Her dad was in the military and she spent a good portion of her life in Germany, where she still has family!
  3. When we first met, Kevin wasn’t sure if he wanted to travel extensively or even move away from the DC area!
  4. Kevin used to homebrew some amazing beer. If only we could figure out how to do that from the RV…hmmm…..
  5. We like to rock climb, but are biding our time as the kids get older. They’ve done a little bit of climbing with us but we look forward to doing more.
  6. We hope to someday also do some international RVing in countries such as Iceland and New Zealand!!
  7. Some of our favorite travel spots have been: Colorado, North Cascades, Black Hills of South Dakota, Northeast US in the fall, Page Arizona, Grand Canyon, San Antonio, Olympic Peninsula, Ireland, Germany, the Lake District of England.
  8. A few of our favorite travel memories: our private boat tour inside Apostle Island sea caves, paddle boarding the Teton River, hiking to Darby Canyon Wind cave, rails to trails bike rides in Idaho and Colorado, exploring Irish and UK castles, local German festivals.
  9. Our travel bucket list still includes: visiting more US national parks and international national parks too! Transpacific cruises to Japan and Australia. Visiting Alaska and Hawaii. And more of course!
  10. We’re super excited about future travels and at this time we don’t plan to stop traveling anytime soon.
